Sep gone and Rowe out with him. Looking very good for Quickstep.

 

[Armel]

He's like the Kompany of cycling. His tire got stuck in a crack on the road very unlucky.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Didn't see GvA sneak his way back to the front.

 

[Armel]

It looks like the both of them are not good enough atm. Strange.

Sad for Tom for having to end his Rvv career this way.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Very sad for Boonen. They aren't eating into the advantage. Looking very good for Gilbert, and it's quite a comeback for him, as it looked like his golden form of 2009-2012 were a distant memory.

 

[Armel]

Naesen and Sagan. Sagan exhausted drove to close to the barriers.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

That's the race for Gilbert surely.

 

[Armel]

Heroic images though

 

[Armel]

I think if the fall didn't happen they would have caught him.

Sagan fell btw and then came the jacket with Naesen.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

I think you're right, but still, hats off to Gilbert. Heck of an effort.

 

[Armel]

Haha the flash interview. He didn't consciously attack he asked the team car but they didn't respond so he kept going.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Fortune favours the brave.

 

[Armel]

Evidence of the steering error of Sagan; tired.

 

[Armel]

Congrats to him. First Walloon to win it in 30 years. The last one to win it was Claudy (Criquielion), who died a couple of years ago after a rather difficult life.

Martinez was also present, together with the Belgian cycling coach.
